“When somebody is thrown in to the air 10 feet, and land like they are landing on a pillow, it’s absolutely exceptional. The technique involved, the thousands of hours of training, involved in that.”/nThe singers also impressed him./n[Rex Duval, Restaurant Group President]:
“The tenor was wonderful, but the soprano was absolutely exceptional. She had not only high register but also a resonance in her lower tones that was absolutely beautiful. Every note on pitch, on key, she was lovely. And just her whole presence was very engaging and very inviting and drew you in to everything she was singing.”/nHe enjoyed the digital backdrops./n[Rex Duval, Restaurant Group President]:
“Each story different from the next. Engaging. The background, the videography, how it blended with the actual live performance, was exceptional and we see very little if any of that here in our western culture. This is something quite unique and I would recommend this heartily to everybody.”/nPlaywright Martin Dove was also at the show./n[Martin Dove, Playwright]:
“There’s a certain amount of majesty to it that was quite exciting.”/nHe couldn’t find enough words to describe Shen Yun./n[Martin Dove, Playwright]:
“The costumes were like, seeing the wind in color. If that makes sense. It was an absolutely wonderful experience, and I can’t say enough about Shen Yun.”/nNTD News, New York
